中国发布今年首个暴雨红色预警
China's meteorological authority on Thursday issued its first red alert of the year as relentless torrential rains continue to batter large swaths of the country. The highest-level warning—indicating extreme weather that poses grave risks to life and property—came after days of sustained downpours triggered severe flooding and numerous landslides across southern and central regions.
The alert underscores the escalating severity of a rainy season that began unusually early and with ferocious intensity. Since May, at least five distinct rounds of heavy rainfall have lashed several provinces, overwhelming drainage systems and swelling major rivers beyond danger levels. In Chongqing, a sprawling municipality of over 30 million people, local authorities activated a Level IV emergency response as floodwaters inundated urban streets and rural farmland.
